'''Abraham Lincoln''' was the 16th [[President of the United States of America]] serving from 1861 to 1865.  He led the country through its darkest chapter, the [[American Civil War]].  His humble origins, from his birth in a [[Kentucky]] log cabin, his early life of poverty, through his struggle with life in a frontier society gave him an all-too human, and humane, personality, which he used to great effect in his law practice, his politics, and ultimately the presidency.  And despite a severe lack of a formal education, Lincoln is the author of some of the most profound and eloquent writings ever to have come from the pen of an American.
